ICE arrested a Mexican man who killed his nephew while driving drunk in Texas, the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire on Thursday.

The department arrested 39-year-old Mexican national Jose Luis Gonzalez-Montiel alongside four other “worst of the worst” criminal aliens during enforcement operations on Wednesday. The arrests come as the Trump administration seeks to carry out the president’s mass deportation plans.

Gonzalez-Montiel was convicted of intoxicated manslaughter in Bexar County, Texas, after he drove off the road near San Antonio in his Ford SUV with his nephew in the vehicle back in 2017. Both Gonzalez-Montiel and his nephew were ejected from the vehicle.

Gonzalez-Montiel was arrested on vehicular manslaughter charges after his nephew died from his injuries 13 days after the crash. He reportedly told police that he drank up to eight beers before driving.

“Every single day, our brave ICE law enforcement risk their lives to arrest the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens,” a senior official with the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire. “From pedophiles to drunk drivers killing innocent people, President Trump and Secretary Noem will not allow criminal illegal aliens to terrorize American citizens. Our message to criminal illegals is clear: LEAVE NOW. If you don’t, we will find you and we will deport you.”

The department also picked up multiple other criminal illegal aliens on Wednesday, convicted of heinous crimes from the East to the West coast.

ICE arrested 58-year-old Viroth Phannavong, an illegal alien from Laos, convicted of first-degree child molestation in Providence, Rhode Island. His crime involved molesting the daughter of his former girlfriend.

The agency also arrested 40-year-old Meljim Ramirez-Perez, an illegal alien from Guatemala convicted of continuous sex abuse of a child in Los Angeles; 35-year-old Andre Etienne, a criminal illegal alien from Jamaica convicted of child molestation in Conyers, Georgia; and 45-year-old Zhiping Liu, an illegal alien from China convicted of theft by extortion in Brookville, Pennsylvania, Homeland Security told The Daily Wire.

Under Trump, ICE arrests have surged as the agency targets illegal aliens convicted of violent crimes.
